Interpretation
The aphorism pairs two strategic imperatives: keep a “global vision” (an expansive sense of where markets, technology, and competition are heading) while securing “local win” (execution that fits on-the-ground realities—culture, regulation, logistics, consumer habits). Read this way, it cautions against abstract globalization that ignores local conditions, and against parochial tactics that lack long-term direction. In business terms, it endorses a hub-and-spoke mindset: a unifying mission and scalable platform, but localized products, partnerships, and operations that actually beat competitors in specific places.
